What kind of dog? We have a lab/husky mix that loves play dates. :smile:

 

He's the a giant lab/ (shepard/rotty/pitbull/boxer - not sure) mix. The lab part is pretty obvious, but we have no idea what else is in there. We got him from the humane society a few months ago. He's about 6 yrs old, and weighs 90 lbs. he's a big boy, but I bet a lab/husky is that size, too. He likes other dogs, too, and normally does okay with them.

I don't know if my wife will show up or not. But I won't bring the dog with me, because I can't fit him and the autocross stuff in the car at the same time And last time he went to an autocross, the loud cars scared the poo out of him, and it drove my wife nuts to have the giant scared dog dragging her around.

 

Sounds like a cutie. Bear is about 75 lbs and almost 3 years old.

I know what you mean about fitting the dog and other stuff in the car. We still haven't nailed down the best way to set her up. She's only ridden once, on our way back from the dealership. We just put the seats down for her, but she wasn't wild about that. Too much room to slide around. She ended up sitting her butt on our bag that was behind the driver's seat and pointing out the back. Next time, we're gonna see how she does with the seats up.

Any advice? How does your puppers usually ride?

 

How did this become the doggy thread? Ok then, pets: colors, names, etc...

 

Oooh - Ooooh!! We have a cat. Well, a special needs cat. He doesn't walk so well. But he's super cute!! His name is Jaz. We say he's a Wildrice color.

 

hey that cat reminds me of a cat when I was a kid, his name was petti, he used to sleep at the foot of my bed when I went to bed.

 

lol
Jaz jumped on our bed once. And only once. He tried another time, but was short and all we heard was this thud into the side of the bed and then this noise cuz the rest of him was hitting the bedframe. It was kinda funny....

 

Sounds funny, now that you mentioned the topic of cats, Ever since I moved here I've had to leave my pets behind and I miss them, I also have a black lab mix whe dont know the other part of her. but the black lab is obvious

 

Ok. Officially now a pet thread. This should be called the MINI-sota A.D.D. Club

Here's Norton, whom some you met last night.

 

Sorry... It'll never happen again.

While I'm here - we have the 1 dog and 3 cats. All of which can walk and jump normally.

 

I take offense to the A.D.D. comment!!

Or do I resemble it.....

 

LMAO

Is it bad that we sometime use him for a party toy?!

 

ROFLMAO

I think he knows we are teasing him..btw I was misdiagnosed with add and sometimes i think I do have it

 

I THOUGHT THIS WAS A CAR CHAT FORUM .NOT A PET FORUM COME ON
DUDES .I THOUGHT YOU WERE COOLER THAN THAT

 

Yeah - you're right.....

So where's your info?! Mr Moderator!

 

NO PETS HERE PAL. J/K WHATS UP ADAM SO, IS IT ON FOR SAT

THE BIG HUNT .HOW MANY PEEPS DO YOU HAVE SO FAR EST. I CANT WAIT

I WISH WE COULD GET ABOUT 50 CAR BUT NOW IAM DREAMING /GURU

 

You obviously have to get more in touch with your warm, fuzzy side Guru-Dude

 

My license plate for my last car was ADD-771. More than a few people thought it might be more than coincidence.

 

I figured it was a reference to my cribbage playing. "Add 7, 7 & 1"

The buzzturds didn't believe me.

 

So far, the best arrangement we've found is to put the seats down, and then throw his doggy bed in there. Then, I just try to drive gently and not throw him around. He'll lay down and relax.

But really, he's slightly too big to be riding in a Mini - not that he fits in our other car (a civic sedan) very well, either, though.

 

Our beagle hates car rides. We hoped she would get better once we got the MINI. No luck so far. So...she rides in her crate when we go places. She seems to like the safety of it. We just fold the seats down and load the crate in through the hatch. We'll usually stuff a blanket on each side of the crate to stabilize it.

She sure has the "eyes" bit down, doesn't she?

Bet she's got you trained well by now.

 

Yep. She's a big con-artist. She's quite spoiled.

 

Well, the autocross was awesome. The course was a blast. I turned my fastest run with my friend in the car, it was cool.

I talked to Dave and Stacy a little bit, and saw that 2005LY must have been there since I saw a yellow mini on the road :smile:

That was awesome. A great way to almost end the year... Or end the year if I don't go to the one in Waterloo on the 24th.
